Life

Life

An eternal gift
Breeding joy,
Magic,
Pushing every step of the way. 
Challenge makes each breath lighter,
As it takes us a step closer.

 Life,
Ever changing
Ever constant
Ever unsure and
Ever solid.

A cycle of learning,
Many lessons of loving.
It must be selfless and
Without control so we may understand
What's truly in control.

The Great Spirit guiding
Humble lessons
Always reminding us of purpose.
Giving strength
But one must know It's there to feel it.
Faith.
Hope.
Trust.
Mystery.

Breathe each breath intentionally,
Making sure to give thanks.
For each breath,
Each interaction,
Each quiet moment,
Each victory
Is a gift.

Life.
